Virus & Malware Protection with Ad Blocker – Web Guardian

Block sites that spread viruses, malware and phishing before they load. Optional ad blocker for ads, trackers and YouTube ads.

Web Guardian is a free security extension that keeps your browsing safer. It blocks websites known to spread viruses, malware, and phishing scams before they load, and it can hide ads and trackers too. It is on from the first visit and stays quiet, so you keep reading the page you meant to open. ✦ What Web Guardian does: 🛡️ Virus & Malware Protection – Stops known malicious websites, including sites that spread viruses or try to steal your passwords, before they open in this browser. Threat lists ship with the extension and are refreshed over time, so a page does not wait on a live lookup. 🧹 Ad Blocker – Turn it on to block ads, pop-ups, and trackers on every site, including ads on YouTube videos. Pick general or regional filter lists such as EasyList and EasyPrivacy in Settings. It is off by default and works separately from virus and malware protection. 🔗 Cleaner Links – Strips common tracking parameters from the links you open, so the address you follow is the page itself. ⚠️ Shortened Link Warning – Optionally get a warning before a shortened link opens, for the moments when the real destination is hidden. 🚫 Clear Block Page – When a dangerous site is flagged, you see the blocked host, a short reason, and a clear way back. 📬 Mail Guardian – Sign in with Google to see phishing emails, data breaches linked to your email address, and how much of your inbox is marketing mail or receipts. 📊 Activity – See websites visited, websites blocked, and how many days this browser has been covered. 🏅 Security Score – A 100-point security setup that shows the next useful step, from web protection to Mail Guardian and Phone Guardian. 🐶 Meet Max – A friendly husky on the welcome screen, the block page, and in settings. Medals unlock as you stay safe. 📱 Phone Guardian Family – Sign in with the same Google account to see this browser beside Phone Guardian on your phone. ✦ Why use Web Guardian: • Online security without setup: install it and you are covered. • One extension against dangerous sites, ads, and trackers. • Turn protection or the ad blocker off and back on from the toolbar at any time. • Lightweight: it runs on Chrome's built-in rule engine. It works inside your browser and stops dangerous websites; it does not scan files on your computer. Whether you are opening an unfamiliar link from an email or checking a page you visit every day, Web Guardian adds a clear layer of protection against online threats without getting in the way. Web Guardian is part of the Phone Guardian family, built to make everyday browsing clearer and safer.
